QuickBooks for Mac 2012 Download free

As has been the case with past versions of Intuit’s accounting and business finance application, is a bit of an enigma. It’s a very good product that, when looked at in a vacuum, is easy to work with, offers a number of excellent features, is updated on a regular basis, and is a truly useful product.

Unfortunately, QuickBooks doesn’t exist in a vacuum. In fact, it lives in a kind of rarefied air, under the enormous shadow (to mix metaphors) that is QuickBooks for Windows—the application used by most small business accountants and, frankly, a large number of Mac users via Bootcamp, Parallels, or VMWare Fusion.

The reality is that QuickBooks for Mac is held hostage to the success and expectations created by the feature-set and ubiquity of Intuit’s eponymous Windows-based product. While QuickBooks 2012 offers some compelling new features, it also has a number of bugs and interface shortcomings.

Much to like

With QuickBooks 2012, it’s clear that Intuit is refining the way you work with your data, by adding features and making it easier for you to find and use the information that you need. Intuit has added four major new features to QuickBooks 2012, two of which offer significant benefits.

At the top of the list is QuickBooks 2012’s new redesigned forms interface, which you see in everything from estimates and invoices to checks, bills, and purchase orders. What’s different about the forms interface is the amount of information it allows you to see and interact with in a single location.
